Unable to build assembly

HI

I am working with vb.net 2.0 and trying to build a setup file. But get this
error. How to solve this:

Unable to build assembly 'myassembly' into the Global Assembly Cache; the
assembly is not strongly named.

thanks

Hi,

You will have to generate the strong name for your assembly to add it to the
GAC.

Right Click on your project from VS 2005, on the project property page that
would appear, go to the 'Signing' tab and check the check box 'Sign the
Assembly'. Select New from the dropdown below to generate a strong name key
file for your assembly. In the dialog, type in the name of the Key file (and
your password if you need), then click OK. A strong key file name will be
generated for your assembly with the extension snk. This should solve your
problem.

Rgds,
Bhaskar

I have encountered a situation where I am unable to remove a .NET assembly from the GAC. The message I receive is "Assembly 'assemblyname' could not be uninstalled because it is required by other applications."

Using gacutil does not work...

I have a ASP.Net web application that has two assemblies that run under com+. Under Windows 2000 the two assemblies are added to com+ automatically when instantiated from the web site. For this to happen we had to change the context in which asp.net runs from machine to SYSTEM by modifying the machine.config file. Under Windows 2003 no matter how asp.net is set to run as either machine or system. I get the following error: ...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
